They're not really for me; I can't wear them at work, after all, and they're pretty expensive to just have on for a week. I've had them a couple of times and always applied at a salon, but for special occasions.

I think very pretty~ Esp Japanese acryllic nails. *.*
But my mom wont let me get them done. >.< Plus if you get them too much they can ruin your nails. >.< I think I'll stick with nail art by me for awhile.

Here, everyone gets gel nails. Which get so expensive and ridiculous because a tonne of girls my age get them but I doubt they actually pay from them, they get mommy and daddy to. Spoiled girls...
They can be so pretty and I'd love to just get them once but I've heard you can't actually do that? Which is weird. I love the coloured ones like purple and red french tips. But I would probably just stick to white, it's more classy. :P

You mean just press on nails then. Gel nails are made from something different than real acrylic nails. I don't know enough to differentiate the two though, so that's about all I can tell you from what I know haha.

If you want to keep them up you have to deal with re-growth and if it chips and such. too much to handle and too expensive for me. ):
